You are all cordially invited to join this year’s graduating woodworking students in celebrating their year with a showcase of their final projects.
Join us on Thursday, August 11 from 6 to 9 p.m. at the woodshop at 110 Carrier Drive.
Join the GARDENS Project this Thursday, August 11, and learn about the health benefits of gardening and cooking with herbs.
This interactive workshop will teach participants gardening tips for spaces of any size and participants will get the chance to pot a seedling to take home! RSVP required.
We will explore the importance of understanding your own values and perspectives. A value is a human quality to which we attribute importance that we express through what we think, say, and recognize in what others say and do. Values are about what’s important to us: they determine how we prioritize our expenditure of attention, time, energy, and resources. As a result, we entirely give ourselves to what we value and avoid what we do not. This workshop will explore your values and perspectives and the importance of values alignment in nurturing the culture of innovation within organizations.

Culture’s Compass is Reminaging The Arts And Culture Landscape
Bringing together artists, arts administrators, emerging professionals, and anyone interested in arts and culture development.
Virtually: July 26-27, 2022
Culture’s Compass is hosting a free two-day virtual conference. The conference entitled “Reimagining The Arts And Culture Landscape” will discuss the inner and current workings of the arts and culture sector. We hope to see you in attendance - Register now
About Culture’s Compass
Culture’s Compass started in 2020 as a free two-day virtual conference. That year, it explored how the arts and culture industry kept beating during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to fatigue from online events, 2021 was adapted as a digital experience featuring a virtual gallery showcasing emerging artists, a mini docu-series, and a resource hub. This year, the free virtual conference is making a return with a focus on reimagining the arts and culture sector, and taking a deeper look at the cultural landscape.
Culture's Compass is created entierly by Humber students with the guidence from the CCBI, so come out and learn about the arts while supporting our students efforts.

Our Summer Innovation Workshop Buffet is here! Join us for this introduction to solving challenges and opportunities.
This is where we have some fun understanding why we work so well with some people and not so well with others. From this workshop, we will explore how the Basadur Simplexity Profile developed by Dr. Min Basadur sets the stage for optimizing how we solve challenges and opportunities both individually and collectively. This intro workshop is a pre-requisite for Simplexity Level 1 for Problem Solving.
The facilitator Debra Pickfield, MBA (Leadership), BA Social Sciences (Economics) is a dedicated “Minion” as she has facilitated Simplexity sessions for more than ten years and watched groups navigate from frustration to “ahhh – we get it” as they explore what the real issue seeking to be solved is. Debra’s commitment to recognizing problem-solving as a key driver of innovation is what brings her to Humber College, and she is looking forward to sharing her passion and supporting anyone or any team as they learn a new skill to approach any opportunity or challenge facing them.
We are excited to offer this workshop in person to expand your learning.
Lunch will be provided so please ensure you make a note of any food allergies or dietary restrictions in the registration form.
Registration deadline: Thursday, July 14
